One word, ok maybe 2 words. Tommee Tippee. Does your children drink out of the straw cups? Mine do, they have been since I weaned them off the bottle at a year old. They just prefer the straw cups as opposed to the sippy cups. But if your like me and have been buying those straw cups for over 2 years you know one horrible flaw, one promise made that they haven't followed through with, they are most definitely NOT spill proof. First off, get a little pressure underneath one of the regular straw cups and their drink just come up that straw like a volcano you can't control. Then put one of those cups into the hands of an animal like Oliver and liquid is just coming out everywhere! He throws it and you better believe water/milk is coming out, he leaves it laying down and a puddle of drink is accumulating on my floor. I visited the baby cup isle no matter what store I was at, no matter what my list consisted of to see if there was ever anything new. I tried all the brands! The packaging they come in is more exit proof than the cups themselves.

Three weeks ago, I was at Babies R Us and saw a new cup, yes it pretty much looked the same as the other so I hesitated a little, then I saw a brand name I had never seen in the other cups, Tommee Tippee. I knew now, I had to get it and give it a try. First day, no leaks and the first thing that happened when I gave the full cup to Oliver? It was thrown on my wood floors. Not one drop spilled out, I was already impressed. Waiting throughout the day to see if the cups would start spilling over. Nope, nothing. Days went by and still I saw no liquid spilling out anywhere. Another plus of the cup is the straw is actually long enough to get all the liquid in the cups as opposed to the competitors they leave a gap of about 2 inches so the drink is never really finished. Cleaning is easy, again, the competitors have way to many rubber nooks and crannies which make it really hard to clean after a while of use.

They are just a few dollars more for a pack of 2 , but a few dollars is a small price to pay for not spilling milk or juice all over!

So overall I love these cups and would recommend them to any one over all the other cups. I thought I would blog about it because these are lifesavers if your like me and frustrated with leaky cups.
